Great Drinks, Funky Art, Good Tunes, Good Times, Damn Fine People, Fadulous Cocktails. Have a chat, a drink, a dance and a damn fine time with us at FAD!

Fad has been in existence as a first of it's kind lane way/ art gallery / bar / place of assembly since 1995. Johnny Halleday the king of character himself has established / founded and run FAD Gallery to become one of Melbournes most loved and still 'hidden' laneway bars. Situated in the heart of Chinatown Fad is known for many things, but primarily it's known as a damn fine place where all people from any walks of life can come and have a drink, a chat, a meeting, check out the artwork, come for an art opening, come for a dance, a party or anything a long those lines. Supporting artists and musicians, with a variety of art openings taking place throughout the year, live music each and every Thursday night and a DJ/music selecta playing tunes every Friday & Saturday from the past 5/6 decades that guarantees a room full of people (from all walks of life) have a time like no other dancing the night away. The only we can describe the weekends at fad is like a house party on heat. Pretty much everything you wanted in a bar minus the di*****ds. It's a winning situation at FAD. So come down for a drink anytime you please, we are open from tuesday - saturday from 4pm-12am (tuesday & wednesday) and 4pm - 1am (thursday - saturday).
